Customization Options

The full course is designed to last at least 5 days. It can be shortened if certain topics are not relevant to the customer's needs. If participants are new to OpenStack (requiring a slower pace), it is recommended to extend the course to 6 days or remove some advanced topics. Additionally, the course can be extended by one more day to cover OVN topics.

The course provides a deep dive into OpenStack networking. It begins with an introduction to OpenStack and its architecture, then delves into the core OpenStack projects such as the Identity service (Keystone), Image service (Glance), Compute service (Nova), and Block storage (Cinder). This foundational knowledge sets the stage for a detailed exploration of the Networking project (Neutron) within OpenStack. The course also covers virtual network infrastructure, focusing on the Open Virtual Network (OVN) project, Open vSwitch, and OpenFlow. The primary objective is to equip participants with a solid understanding of basic OpenStack operations and architecture, while also familiarizing them with the various networking technologies that underpin OpenStack, including detailed information about OVN, underlying flows, resources, and tools.

Customization Options

The training can be condensed into a 2-day program, focusing on the core aspects most relevant to the customer's needs. Alternatively, it can be extended to cover additional topics such as administrative tasks, design considerations, networking specifics, and troubleshooting related to OpenStack deployments. The course can also include discussions of other underlying SDN solutions like Linux Bridge or OvS.

The objective of this course is to introduce you to the OpenStack environment from both the operator and administrator perspectives. After a concise overview of cloud computing, you will be provided with your own OpenStack instance to perform practical operational and administrative tasks. The course delves into all the fundamental components of OpenStack, covering everything from its overall architecture to cloud administration. Approximately 90% of the course is dedicated to hands-on workshops in a real OpenStack environment.

The course comprehensively addresses all topics covered in the Certificate OpenStack Administrator (COA) exam, preparing participants both theoretically and practically. Additionally, the curriculum has been expanded to include content that will help you better grasp the intricacies of OpenStack necessary for passing the exam. By the end of the course, each participant will have the opportunity to test their knowledge through a mock COA exam.
